Lighting and heat dissipation has been considered as per inputs provided by specialist.
Technical Power (in addition to regular office power supply) for other rooms:
• Studio: Utility + Technical Power: 25 KW
o 20 m2 of video walls, at 700 W/m2 = 14 KW
o 3x media systems wall boxes, at 2 KW per wallbox= 6 KW
o Allowance for other on-floor equipment= 5 KW
• Studio Lighting= 30 KW
o Based on 300 W/ m2 for a 100 m2 space
• CAR: 12 KW
o 3x fully equipped racks at 4KW per rack
• Gallery: 5 KW
• Audio Control: 1 KW
• Audio Record: 1 KW
• Post-Production (Mezzanine): 6 KW
o 4x High-end workstations with multiple computer and video monitors, + 4x wall-
